    Isolated Yeast (Tree House): How to Identify and Characterize?

    Lower 60's is where I've been using S-04 in order to reduce it's S-04'ness. I also had hoped to reduce some of 1318's "qualities" by doing the same. I wasn't expecting it to be so similar, because my experiment with Conan wasn't, but oddly this seemed closer than previous attempts with S-04 —...

    Isolated Yeast (Tree House): How to Identify and Characterize?

    Chilled to 60F and then set it to 63F, till I moved to a keg with the second dry hop, sugar, CBC1 (day 6). That sat at room temp for a few days, then into the fridge.

    Anyone know/heard anything about Trillium's new "fermentation profile?"

    This was Citra, Hallertau Blanc, Simcoe.

    Isolated Yeast (Tree House): How to Identify and Characterize?

    Wow, wild that it's specific to a particular hop. I will say there's something about the ester-free profile in that Bright Galaxy. If Tired Hands or HF was doing a S-05/S-04 thing, I could see the appeal in that.

    Isolated Yeast (Tree House): How to Identify and Characterize?

    I'd forgotten about that video! (I love watching Kimmich drink his beers). Both Bright: Galaxy and Very Green just milky levels of haze and both just shy of being a bit chalky in the finish. Bright: Mosaic always a relatively clear beer, crazy what a hop can do.

    Isolated Yeast (Tree House): How to Identify and Characterize?

    One thing that's interesting, Bright: Galaxy much hazier than Doppelganger and Haze. Similar levels as Very Green and crazy good.

    Isolated Yeast (Tree House): How to Identify and Characterize?

    Very similar in appearance (allowing for mine being 7.0 ABV) and mouthfeel. Ester finish seems really close to me. But not necessarily the same as Haze, Very Green, or Lights On — one size does not fit all.

    Isolated Yeast (Tree House): How to Identify and Characterize?

    Kettle finings a bit more dialed in. Last one came close to clearing once it got in the keg, this one to my eye exactly duplicates the level of haze and the color in doppelganger.

    Isolated Yeast (Tree House): How to Identify and Characterize?

    Classic misdirection. But seriously, ah yes he does say that on Twitter. Back to Citra, Amarillo, Simcoe. Though I do want to try swapping Summit for Simcoe.

    From Julius' new history: "In 2011, not long after learning the fundamentals of brewing, I felt comfortable branching out, experimenting, and chasing flavor profiles I had not yet tasted in a beer. Armed with an obsession for fresh fruit juice - specifically mango & orange - I began down a path...

    Isolated Yeast (Tree House): How to Identify and Characterize?

    I've never had Lights On before and am unsure which hops are in it. There can be good onion and bad onion, and in this beer it's a good onion. The 45 was on tap. The description: "Curiosity Forty Five utilizes a simple malt bill and some of our favorite hop varieties as the base for a number of...

    Isolated Yeast (Tree House): How to Identify and Characterize?

    Visited the brewery last night (for science) had a curiosity 45 there and brought some beers. No line and quite a bit of beer available, so Thursday evening is shaping up to be a good time to go. Noticed something that reminds one of WB-06 in 45. It happens at the beginning of the sip. Lights...

    "Alter Ego was born during a time of intense experimentation as we transitioned from a 5 BBL brew house to a 30 BBL brewhouse in 2015 and was first served at our third anniversary party. A little known fact is that the original batch was split into two 15 BBL fermenters - one half of that batch...

    "I just talked with John and yes sounds like your hunch is correct and that John is indeed still using Greg's Conan (VPB1188). Sounds like there were some wires getting crossed between my interview with him and Shaun Hill. In my interview with John he mentioned the evolution of his yeast over...

    In times like this I'm reminded that tasters weren't able to distinguish between Conan and LAIII in a Brulosophy experiment.
